Why We Are Spending $8. ooo._ooo to Construct The Skokie Valley Route E IGHT million dollars is the cost of construct.. · ing the Skokie Valley Route of the North Shore Line. That is a sizable sum of money, and there are two reasons why we are spending it: First- the new route will broaden the scope and increase the efficiency of North Shore Line service; Second-having determined to build the new route, we could not do the job the way we want it done for any lesser amount. Paralleling the Shore Route of the North Shore Line from Evanston to Lake Bluff- at an average distance of between 2 and 3 miles westthe Skokie Valley tracks are now being laid. They penetrate a section that heretofore has lagged for the want of convenient railroad facili .. ties. They are awakening this territory-making it available to the thousands in and near Chi.. cago who are seeking new and uncrowded suburban communities. But there are other reasons, of equal impc;.·.. tance, for building the Skokie Valley Route. One is shortened running time between Chicago and Milwaukee, which also means between Chice1go and Waukegan, Chicago and Kenosha, and Chi, cago and Racine. Another is the achievement of frequent, high .. speed, direct.. without,change transportation between downtown Chicago and the growing communities of Libertyville and Mundelein. The Skokie Valley Route is not a long route, as railroads go. But when completed it " i 11 represent a model piece of railroad construction. It is being built to serve you not only today, but tomorrow. It is a definite part of the North Shore Line's program of perpetual progress. It will be ready for operation this spring. ..
